After taking a class in 2015 that introduced me to oil and

cold wax, I found a new source of energy that has motivated

me and continues to fuel my creative momentum.  

The spontaneity that cold wax and acrylics offer is very

freeing and energizing.  Continually experimenting with these

techniques and finding new ways to create and express works

that speak to the process as much as the final image. 

The many layers, which are also found in our natural environment.

Layers that create a dialogue into its own beginnings. 

Creating images that connect us to the beauty and mystery

of nature, and the importance of sustaining it.

“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry

is painting that is felt rather than seen.”

– Leonardo DaVinci

“The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from

all over the place:

from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper,

from a spider’s web.'

– Pablo Picasso
